Abstract :
Helical cone-beam scanning is a technique for rapidly acquiring X-ray projections of a long object. The authors present a detector shape which ensures complete and non-redundant data capture. Furthermore, a recently invented, computationally efficient reconstruction algorithm, produces images of high quality
